I was just wondering if it was possible for a female to lay eggs from multiple fathers in one clutch?

That's not really weird, my broody chickens hatch whatever eggs were laid in that nest the day she went broody.

Just sayin.
 
it was weird to me because the hens nest was on top of my stack hay bales in the barn and the duck that laid the egg in the nest was a runner and i don't know how it got up there, plus they didn't exactly like each other. They where always trying to make there own flock by separating the younger males and females (you think some of the dominant drakes would do this) but its not a problem anymore a raccoon got to her, a mallard, and a rouen. The only thing that i have left his her duckling.
